higx is on a distinguished road
I think i'm done researching and am ready to pull the trigger...

The things I try to get answers to before buying a wheel/tire are:

-will it clear the calipers
-is it the >correct< offset
-will I need to get hubcentric rings
-will I need new lugs/studs
-Is the tire diameter as close to oem as possible *
-Are the tires directional

Now with the X5 -- a few more questions popped up
-Can I get BMW center caps - yes
-How/where what do i get TPMS - think I have that covered
-Do I have to run staggered... answer is no --
-Will I be able to run a * 295/40/20 on a 20x9 all the way around and not get the wheel arch extensions? That I don't know about.

Anyway -- I think these are the ones for me: EXE Konkourse

EXE KonKourse - 20 inch staggered wheels for BMW 5 Series
